I had originally intended to tow the cheese using a tractor beam and had this fantastic image of a giant tractor made from some form of energy ray being used to effectively scoop up the cheese and carry it along. Unfortunately if the universe’s continued existence depended on me being able to draw a decent…Read more
Some experiments fail
I think this comic is probably the funniest thing I wrote all day when I first sketched it. It’s something that came to me while I was drawing the last two episodes of A trip down memory lane and I’m pretty sure it’s far better-suited to the three-panel format than that story was. From now…Read more
Nob Trek: The Next Adventure, part 2
I’ve been a fan of Star Trek since childhood, when I would try to have all my homework finished in time to sit and watch repeats of the Classic Series on BBC2 at 6pm; then the first run of later series of The Next Generation when they started up. Initially I wasn’t keen on The…Read more
A trip down memory lane, part 4
When I showed this one to Jenny, my girlfriend and de facto test audience, she laughed at my portrayal of a baby Nob mouse but she was also rather shocked at Frederick’s inclusion in this story. I was surprised by this but that’s probably because I, being the writer, already knew Frederick was going to…Read more
Nob Trek: The Next Adventure, part 1
I’ve had this story planned for quite a while now – since some time around February, as I recall. It’s a fun sequel to the Series One story, Nob Trek, which I originally wrote to fill space in an anthology comic I produced for my GCSE Art & Design portfolio. I got a grade ‘C’…Read more
Search by series
The comics in The Life of Nob T. Mouse are arranged into ‘series’, defined by both the period in which they were created and the comic form they take. Because of this arrangement, the comics are now tagged with the series to which they belong. This has the advantage that you can now search for…Read more
A trip down memory lane, part 3
I concerned that the jokes in this story just aren’t coming, which is unfortunate. It has been an experiment in telling a story in successive three-panel strips and I don’t think it’s working in this particular case. Perhaps this would have been better as a long-form comic on a Monday. In future, I’ll use the…Read more
Pie Noon, part 25
Apologies once more for the delay in this, the final episode of Pie Noon, officially the longest story in the history of The Life of Nob T. Mouse. I’m rather pleased with it, although part of me is wondering whether I should have made more of the finale; possibly allowing the story to stretch to…Read more
Interlude Sketch: Judge Nob
I am unfortunately bogged down by coursework at the moment. I have an assignment due on Wednesday about EU law and it’s major part of my degree course so I really can’t take the time out to finish my work on today’s episode of Pie Noon. I’m very sorry to disappoint everyone but please rest…Read more
A trip down memory lane, part 2
I loved the idea of getting the design for the old version of Nob Mouse back into the series for potentially one last outing and this was just too good an opportunity to miss. Also, it’s your first chance to meet Herman Mouse, the founder of Blob City and the original mayor. You may be…Read more
